PART 1 – Comprehension questions in chronological order. I have made two sets for differentiation. The multiple-choice questions may also work well with ESL/ELL students. Answer keys included.

• 30 questions requiring full sentence answers.
• 29 multiple choice questions with 3 possible answers. (+ 1 final question is full sentence)

PART 2 – Discussion questions

• Students to answer five critical thinking questions for class discussion. (Could work well in pairs) Example answers included.

PART 3 – Storyboard and synopsis

• Students to create a 9-scene storyboard, illustrating pivotal events from the movie. Each scene should include a short description explaining the main idea it represents. Use the movie questions to guide sequencing.
• Using their storyboards as guides, students to write a synopsis of the movie.

PART 4 – Character writing

• Students to write about one of the characters following the question prompts and to include a drawing of their chosen character.

Based on the novels by Lloyd Alexander, the movie is about a young pig-keeper who finds himself caught up in a perilous quest when dark magic threatens the land of Prydain. Alongside a band of unexpected companions, he must face dangers beyond anything he imagined.
